FAQ
Frequently asked
Does the helicopter really replace the ferry?
On time, yes: one hour against a five to eleven hour crossing. The helicopter does not carry a vehicle, however, which the ferry does.
Does flying over the sea create constraints?
The sea crossing requires suitable equipment and routing. It is a routine link from the French Riviera, operated with the equipment required for overwater flight.
Can other parts of Corsica be reached?
Calvi serves the Balagne. Other points on the island are available on request; flight time and price are confirmed with your quote.
